About this Event
Ethical, pondering, and wondrous, adrienne maree brown’s LOVING CORRECTIONS is a collection of love-based adjustments and reframes to grow our movements for liberation while navigating a society deeply fractured by greed, racism, and war. In this landmark book, brown invigorates her influential writing on belonging and accountability into the framework of “loving corrections”; a generative space where rehearsals for the revolution become the everyday norm in relating to one another.
Filled with practical wisdom on how to be a trustworthy communicator while providing bold visions for a shared future, LOVING CORRECTIONS can speak to everyone caught in the crossroads of our political challenges and potential. No matter how new to the struggle, or how numerous our failures, brown’s indispensable writing is an invitation to us all.
adrienne maree brown is joining us on the Busboys stage to discuss why we need each other more than ever and dive deeper into our understanding of community. Copies of the book will be available for purchase during and after the event, and brown will be signing following the program.
Please note that all Busboys and Poets Book events are hosted with a first-come, first-serve seating policy. If you do not arrive within 15 minutes of the program's start time, we consider that a forfeit of your ticket and will give that seat to other community member(s).
